I’m 25M 6.1 tall living in Uk, and honestly, I’m starting to feel quite discouraged about my experiences with women. I’ve tried dating apps, approaching women in person, socialising, going out and putting myself in situations where I can meet someone. But the outcome always seems to be the same. I rarely, if ever, receive genuine interest from women. I’m usually the one initiating conversations, showing interest, asking questions and trying to keep things going. Sometimes things seem promising, but eventually I get ghosted or the conversation dies. I’ve never really experienced a woman actively pursuing me, may be because I M brown ,messaging me first because she’s interested, or making an effort to get to know me romantically. I go to the gym, take care of my appearance and try to improve myself, but sometimes I wonder whether I’m doing something wrong or whether some men simply have a much harder time attracting women. I don’t want sympathy or people telling me to just be confident. I’d genuinely like to hear from men who have experienced something similar: Have you ever gone through your 20s without receiving much romantic attention? Did things eventually change for you? Was there something you changed that made a difference? How do you deal with feeling like you’re always the one chasing? I’d appreciate honest answers, especially from men who have been in this position submitted by /u/nonstopthinker1234
